The Milky Way and Andromeda are on a collision course and they will smash together in the distant future. Now the European Space Agency’s telescope Gaia has refined the measurements of Andromeda’s speed and the merger is expected to begin in 4.5 billion years, about 600 million years later than previously expected.

"This finding is crucial to our understanding of how galaxies evolve and interact,"

By Dennis Overbye Advertising The apocalypse has been postponed. Astronomers have long known that the Andromeda galaxy, aka Messier 31, a swirling city-state of a trillion stars — plus all the accouterments of gas, dust, dark matter and black holes — is rumbling through the cosmos right toward us at 68 miles per second. Five years ago astronomers using the Hubble Space...

Scientists have worked out how long we’ve got until the Milky Way smashes into a neighbouring galaxy – and you don’t need to be too worried just yet. At some point in the future, our galaxy will plough into Andromeda and form a massive new star system. It’s now believed this will happen in 4.5 billion years time, rather than 3.9 billion years into the future. Astronomers used...

Thanks to a new study, scientists now have a revised estimate of when the Andromeda Galaxy will finally smash into the Milky Way, and things are looking much brighter for Earth than previously believed. According to Space , the spiral Andromeda Galaxy will still be crashing into the Milky Way, but research through Europe’s Gaia spacecraft has...

Press Release No. 19/2019 15 February 2019 Source: NASA, ESA, and STScI Image of the Hyades, the star cluster closest to the Sun. In the course of their life, open star clusters continuously lose stars to their surroundings. The resulting swath of tidal tails provides a glimpse into the evolution and dissolution of a star cluster. Thus far only tidal tails of massive globular...

A new analysis of pulsing stars has revealed the Milky Way’s twisted shape. Scientists have known that the spiral-shaped Milky Way’s disk is warped, bending by thousands of light-years at its outskirts. Now, researchers have created a map of stars called Cepheid variables in order to create a 3D map of our galaxy and understand the warping better than ever. Though past analysis...

LONDON: The Hubble Space Telescope has made an unexpected discovery of a dwarf galaxy in our cosmic backyard, located just 30 million light-years away, scientists say. Researchers used the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to study white dwarf stars within the globular cluster NGC 6752. According to the European Space Agency (ESA), the aim of the observations was to use these...

The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 2.5 million light-years from Earth. It is the nearest major galaxy to the Milky Way and It gets its name from the area of the sky in which it appears, the constellation of Andromeda, which was named after the Greek mythological princess Andromeda. So next time you look up at the nights sky and see the distant glimmer of the extragalactic stars, remember these 5 fascinating facts about the Andromeda galaxy!
1 - Andromeda can be seen with the unaided eye, which has meant that it has been known since ancient times. On a clear night with little light pollution, it can be seen as a diffuse blur, with the central region clearly visible through a good pair of binoculars. Larger telescopes provide even more-spectacular views of this impressive galaxy.
2 - Andromeda is the big...
